Never experienced, in my entire life, such an overwhelming experience of being inundated in SHOWER of ROSES as I did in a farewell reception by Civil Socciety, led by Junaid Dahri, on August 24 at Press Club Hyd.
Thank you Civil Socciety of Hyd for honouring me so spectacularly!
Supreme Court has suspended the sentences of human rights lawyers @ImaanZHazir and Hadi Ali Chattha and ordered their immediate release. What wonderful news!
BREAKING:
Israel is burning the village of Haris in South Lebanon.
A centuries-old village is being deliberately set ablaze and destroyed in broad daylight — before the eyes of the entire world.
The Pakistani middle class is not shrinking. It is being erased.Daily petrol hike. Daily diesel hike. We are being executed in public and told it is economics.Fill the tank or feed the children. Pay the school or keep the lights on. Choose which part of your life dies first.The government will not stop until the word “middle class” only exists as a notion.
Here we go again: yet another scandal, this time a daylight robbery, so soon after the PIMS tragedy, Sugar Mafia, HEC outrage on Afghan students, another Ponzi Scheme has come to light, actually, the ‘Mother of All Scams’ costing BILLIONS of DOLLARS: all these reflecting an Unholy Alliance, in fact, the TERRIBLE TROIKA of Politicians, Bureaucrats & Vested Interests/Lobbies! System failure is in Islamabad: failed policies, flawed mindsets! The answer lies NOT in blaming provinces or creating new provinces, but Reversing Wrongs where these emanate from: ISLAMABAD! At the very least, LIST of recipients of these $ 5.6 billion freebies to friends MUST be made Public!
Today, Javed Miandad spoke the truth about Imran Khan with tears in his eyes—and it felt like a thunderous slap across the faces of those self-proclaimed “legends.”
After Sharjah, Miandad has hit another six today—this time straight into the hearts of the entire nation.
پمز ہسپتال میں اپنی جان کی پرواہ کیے بغیر اپنی بھابھی بتیجھے تین عورتوں اور ایک نومولود بچے کی زندگی بچانی والی راولپنڈی کی پندرہ سالہ منیبہ جب سب لوگ عملے سمیت بھاگ رہے تھے تب منیبہ نے اندر جاکر اپنی بھابھی بتیجھے اور تین عورتیں اور آخری لمحے میں جب سب کچھ ناممکن تھا ہرطرف دھواں تھا نومولود بچے کو اٹھا کر صیح سلامت باہر لے آئی۔
یہ ہے قومی ہیرو تمغہ ہلال امتیاز سے ایسے ہیروز کو نوازنا چاہئیے ناچنے والوں کو نہیں
ن لیگ کی مجبوریاں اپنی جگہ لیکن کیا وجہ ہوئی کہ ایک ہارے ہوئے شخص کو وزیراعظم آزاد کشمیر نامزد کیا جا رہا ہے ؟ کیا یہ فیصلہ کشمیر کے معروضی حالات میں زخموں پر مرہم رکھ پائے گا ؟ ووٹ کو عزت دو کا بیانیہ مکمل دفن ہو چکا۔۔۔؟
مصطفی کمال کہتا ہے کہ:
“یہ ایک سرکاری ہسپتال ہے۔ اس میں آگ بجھانے کی سہولت جدید ہسپتالوں جیسی نہیں”
جس ۹ کروڑ کی سرکاری گاڑی میں گھومتے ہیں وہ “جدید”۔
منسٹرز آنکلیو میں جس پچاس کروڑ کے سرکاری گھر میں رہتے ہیں وہ “جدید”۔
سرکاری آفس میں جو کمپیوٹرز استعمال کرتے ہیں وہ “جدید”۔
سرکاری خرچوں پر جن ہوائ جہازوں پر جاتے ہیں وہ “جدید”
اور
جس کیمرے کے سامنے کھڑے ہوکر یہ بیان دیا ہے وہ بھی “جدید”۔ فقط غریب کے لئیے ہر چیز “قدیم”۔
PAKISTAN: Journalist and poet Ahmad Farhad has been held in administrative detention under the Maintenance of Public Order Ordinance for over two months, since 20 June, in Bagh, Pakistan-administered Jammu and Kashmir.
🚨 He is currently on a hunger strike in protest against his unlawful detention. He was shifted to a hospital on 22 August after his health deteriorated significantly.
Ahmad Farhad is among several journalists and human rights defenders being targeted for speaking up about the human rights violations in Pakistan-administered Jammu and Kashmir.

Worst cricket team to visit England in 50 years. Worst hockey performance in 50 years. Worst investment in Pakistan in 50 years. Worst poverty rate in 50 years. Worst unemployment in 50 years. Worst economic situation in 50 years. Worst terrorism situation in 50 years.
Wonder if anything is left to make it worse
The refusal to send Imran Khan to Shifa Hospital and set up a 3 doctors committe to examine him ( including Dr Faisal, the personal doctor of Imran Khan ), despite the clear order of the Pakistan Supreme Court, means that the Pakistan Establishment will not obey the orders of the judiciary where it disagrees with such orders.
Had I been the CJP, in these circumstances, I would have closed down all courts in Pakistan until the Establishment gave a firm assurance that in future it will obey the orders of the courts

Her “crime”?

The message could not be clearer:
Israel’s genocide in Gaza is being enabled, backed, funded and protected by the US.
